Apologies for many questions

so on my engine, at 400,000+ K it's probably unavoidable to have to buy pistons...

Tell me what you guys think about my engine parts shopping list....

Crankshaft bearing kit
Connecting rod bearing kit
Crank case/cylinder head gasket kit
Valve stem seals
Exhaust/intake gasket
Pistons
Piston rings
Cylinder sleeves
Timing chain/tensioner and related..
Waterpump
Prechambers
Injectors
Glowplugs
All new engine sensors. (cooling, oil, boost, ect.)
New main cap bolts
New head bolts
New connecting rod bolts and nuts


And of course, any crank/cam machining services and boring. I can do the assembly myself

What's the break-in procedure for a freshly built diesel? and can oversized pistons/sleeves be bought anywhere?

and feel free...if there's anything I should add or remove to this list please lemme know, and also any advise you can give me about rebuilding one of these engines.. I'm not an amateur rebuilder, nor am I a professional, but I can do it.
